Title Within Reach After Arsenal’s Stumble

Liverpool could wrap up the 2024–25 Premier League title this weekend as they prepare to host Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield. Following a dramatic 2-2 draw between Arsenal and Crystal Palace earlier today, the Reds are now firmly in control of their own destiny.

With just five games remaining, Liverpool sits at 79 points—12 ahead of Arsenal, who have only four matches left to play. That means a single point on Sunday would make Liverpool mathematically uncatchable, sealing their first league title in five years.

The Road to Glory: A Season of Consistency and Class

This season has marked a triumphant new chapter under head coach Arne Slot. Liverpool have looked like champions in waiting for months now, blending resilience and flair in equal measure. With 21 wins, 7 draws, and only 1 loss, their consistency has been unmatched.

Statistically, they’ve been brilliant. A +42 goal difference highlights a balanced attack and defense, and they’ve managed to grind out results even when not at their best—a trademark of title-winning sides.

Trent Alexander-Arnold’s return from injury added a spark to the team’s creativity, and he made history by becoming the first defender to notch 60 assists in Premier League history. Meanwhile, Mohamed Salah continues to prove why he’s a club legend, with critical goals and assists that have carried Liverpool in key moments.

A Challenging but Beatable Opponent: Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham Hotspur will visit Anfield as underdogs. It’s been a turbulent season for the North London side, who find themselves languishing in 14th place with just 34 points. Although Spurs possess dangerous forwards and can pose a threat on the counter, they’ve struggled to find consistency.

Liverpool, on the other hand, remain unbeaten at home this season and will be backed by a roaring Anfield crowd eager to celebrate a potential title win.

A Historic Day Awaits

Should Liverpool secure at least a draw, it would signal the club’s 20th top-flight English title—pulling them level with Manchester United for the most in English football history.

Sunday promises to be more than just a football match. It could be the day the red half of Merseyside erupts in celebration, banners fly high across the Kop, and Liverpool reclaims its crown at the pinnacle of English football.
